Do you need some member financial support to cover the costs?

I'd be happy to contribute to a go fund me or paypal to help defray the costs.

Ditto!

We would be more than happy to help pay towards the cost of the forum, our village newspaper comes out every Thursday ($1.50) for 12 pages that are eagerly awaited reading to see who is doing what and what's happening locally.
I spend much more time reading articles on the forum, I learn more from it than from our village newspaper, the forum is required reading to solve the simplest of repairs I undertake on an aging 99 U270 that I love having. All those names: craneman, juicequeezer, redtractor, Pirolet, Roger, Protec racing, pierce and Gaylie and sooo many more graceracer, Wolfe 1, Michelle, and all of you who log in, are all part of an amazing group of people who I look forward to hearing about and from when I log in for a quick look during the day as I am sure many others do.
Surly this is worth financially supporting, $5, $10, $20 is so much less than I pay for that weekly newspaper! Please don't feel you cannot ask for help, it's what we all use the forum for, Count us in.

Or, once you've reached a certain age you know that the fastest way is slow and methodical with lots of written notes.

Congratulations! On surviving the up-grade.

If you are reading this, you know the site is back. As always there were some unexpected difficulties that took a bit of time to resolve but we *believe* most, if not all, of the major functions are working. The forum may have been down less than a day (and thank you all for your patience while it was), but the effort was many weeks of "behind the scenes" testing in hopes of minimizing the disruption.

As you find problems and errors please let me know here or via PM so that we can address them. Steve expects several theme glitches on various pages. The updated theme works fine with the base software, but we have quite a few addons that have some difficulties with it.

Steve has not installed the new media section software, this is still the old version for now, just to much else going on ATM.

We know there are some theme quirks that need to be taken care of, and Steve has not had the chance to test things on mobile/pad devices. The site is not (yet) running any compression or CDN for the data it servers, this is just to allow Steve to fix things quickly.

So welcome back and stick with us while we get everything ironed out.

Did the site always have the quick reply box at the bottom. Never noticed it until today.

Looks fine now. It's like if you only have one car. You take it for granted until it gets repossessed.

Thanks for the ultra quick work. Good thing you didn't have anything else planned for the weekend.

On both my phone and iPad screen defaults to left side of screen losing 20% on right?

Same as dsd on 20-25%.
Looks great, please know your work is appreciated.

I do have about 1/4 of the screen width blank, on the right side of my Android phone. On my windows laptop it is ok, going all the way across. The top menu choices and the bar all the way at the end, go all the way across though on the Android.

Great job on the migration. If you need an idea of how valuable the forum is, go check on the Facebook group; the sky was falling today.

The right hand margin issue was present for me on my iPhone earlier but is no longer an issue.

Will do. I think it's an underlying issue with the existing media section (which we did not change). That entire section is in queue for a major upgrade so try to be patient

Why is the new format so light colored? Really light compared to the old format and all my other applications are still the way they always were. Just not this forum.
